My Take

Jerry White is the kind of name that rewards a closer look. Eleven seasons in Major League Baseball as a switch-hitting outfielder, with the Expos, Cubs and Cardinals, is no small thing, even if he was never a household star. What I take from that is durability. Lasting over a decade at the top level means you can do the unglamorous parts of the job, come off the bench, play the field, contribute from both sides of the plate. He later moved into coaching, which tells me he was a student of the game as much as a player. I have real respect for that long, steady kind of career.
